Do you guys like that Ash bids farewell to his (girl)friends (and Max) after each region has completed? Or would you like to see him travel with the same characters for longer? (I know Brock has been with him a looong time)
Reasons to like change: Episode after episode with the same companions and rivals gets old after an entire season. New characters refresh the show and make it more appealing. It shows how kind-hearted Ash is when he makes new friends and challenges new rivals who don't believe in loving their Pokes. It is a good way to get the new game characters into the anime.
Reasons to wish for longer stints (or at least more frequent cameos): It would give the writers more time to develop the characters instead of them being carbon copies of each other (May Dawn). Maybe they could make a character such as Dawn a co-star character (as they are trying to now kind of) and they would have more time to feature her character.
What do you think?
